Conclusion: The document states that "all acceptance criteria were met," and LMSv2 is concluded to be substantially equivalent to LMSv1.
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Test Set Sample Size:
- In Vivo: The document mentions "in vivo volunteer data" but does not explicitly state the number of volunteers used for the test set.
- Phantom: The document mentions "phantom scans" but does not explicitly state the number of phantoms or scans.
- Substantial Equivalence (In Vivo): The document mentions "in vivo measurements" show specific equivalence values, implying a test set was used, but the size is not specified.
- Substantial Equivalence (Phantom): Similarly, "phantom measurements" are cited for equivalence, but the sample size is not specified.
- Data Provenance: The document does not specify the country of origin of the data nor whether the studies were retrospective or prospective. It only mentions "volunteer scans" and "phantom scans."
3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth
The document does not provide details on the number of experts, their specific qualifications, or their role in establishing ground truth for the test set. The device is intended to be used by trained operators, and reports interpreted by trained clinicians (radiologists, gastroenterologists, hepatologists).
4. Adjudication Method
The document does not describe any specific adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) used for the test set. It does mention "intra-operator" and "inter-operator" variation, indicating that multiple readings by the same operator and different operators were performed.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
No explicit MRMC comparative effectiveness study is described where human readers' improvement with AI vs. without AI assistance is quantified. The evaluation focuses on the performance of the software itself and the variability introduced by operators using the software.
6. Standalone Performance Study
Yes, a standalone performance study was done for the algorithm (LiverMultiScan v2). The entire performance data presented in the tables (accuracy, repeatability, reproducibility, equivalence) represents the algorithm's performance. The "intra-operator" and "inter-operator" studies also demonstrate the variability introduced by the human-in-the-loop when using the standalone software.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
- Phantom Studies: For phantom studies, the ground truth for T1 was based on "literature-reported underestimation of ground truth T1 using MOLLI techniques." For T2* and PDFF, the phantoms likely had known, controlled values for these parameters, which is implied by the term "ground truth" and the quantitative comparisons.
- In Vivo Studies: The document does not explicitly state how ground truth was established for "in vivo volunteer data." Given the measurements are for MRI parameters (cT1, T2*, PDFF), the "ground truth" for repeatability and reproducibility would likely be the measurements themselves when repeated under identical or varied conditions, rather than an external gold standard like pathology, unless otherwise specified. For accuracy, a reference standard might be implied, but it's not detailed.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
The document does not specify the sample size used for the training set.
9. How Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
The document does not describe how ground truth was established for the training set. It focuses on the validation and verification against user needs and intended use, and comparison to a predicate device, rather than the development or training of the algorithm itself.

- o LiverMultiScan (LMSv2) measurement of cT1 is reproducible between systems.
- LiverMultiScan (LMSv2) measurement of T2* is highly repeatable.
- o LiverMultiScan (LMSv2) measurement of T2* is reproducible between systems at the same field strength.
- LiverMultiScan (LMSv2) measurement of PDFF is highly repeatable.
- LiverMultiScan (LMSv2) measurement of PDFF is reproducible between systems.
| Volunteermetric | Repeatability95% Cl Limits of AgreementPerformance metric | Reproducibility95% CI Limits of AgreementPerformance metric |
|---|---|---|
| cT1 | +/- 60ms | +/- 120ms |
| T2* | +/- 7ms | +/- 10ms |
| PDFF | +/- 1% | +/- 2% |
As demonstrated in the table below, the variation introduced by operator reading (use of LMSv2) is well within the proscribed acceptance criteria. There is only minor additional variation introduced by having two readers read the same study compared to the same reader performing a second analysis blinded.

| cT1 | +/- 18ms | +/- 25ms |
| T2* | +/- 3ms | +/- 4ms |
| PDFF | +/- 1% | +/- 1.1% |
Substantial Equivalence
The substantial equivalence testing of LMSv2 versus its predicate device, LMSv1, is summarised in the tables below.
Phantom measurements show that LMSv2 produces T1 and T2* values within 1ms of the predicate (negligible difference). PDFF is within 1% of the predicate where PDFF < 30%, and within 2% at higher percentages.

Image /page/10/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for Perspectum Diagnostics. The word "Perspectum" is written in a bold, sans-serif font in black. Below it, the word "Diagnostics" is written in a smaller, lighter gray font. To the right of the text is a circular graphic with four colored sections: yellow, green, blue, and pink. The graphic is divided horizontally, with the top half showing the yellow, green, and blue sections, and the bottom half showing the pink section.
| Performance metric | |

| T1 | -0.5 to 0.4ms |
| T2* | -0.4 to 0.2ms |
| PDFF < 30% | -0.6 to 0.4% |
| PDFF ≥ 30% | -1.6 to 2% |
In vivo measurements show that cT1 values produced by LMSv2 lie within 40ms of the predicate device, with T2* values within 1ms. There is negligible difference in the measurement of PDFF between LMSv2 and the predicate.
| Metric | In vivo Equivalence95% CI Limits of Agreement | |

| Performance metric | ||
| cT1 | -14.8 to 40ms | |
| T2* | -0.5 to 0.8ms | |
| PDFF | -0.4 to 0.2% |
In summary, as all acceptance criteria were met, we conclude that LMSv2 is substantially equivalent to its predicate, LMSv1.
